okidedrak Posted January 11, 2005 Report Posted January 11, 2005 Second starter broke on my gf's 2.8 pontiac and i'm sick of it. I need an aswer ASAP. Need to be 100% sure as i'm doign this in sub 0 temps. Thanks
okidedrak Posted January 11, 2005 Author Report Posted January 11, 2005 I dont like shoulds or maybes, it has to be a fact. I dont have time to waste in this matter. I've seen a 2.8 and 3.1 starter side by side and looked like the 3.1 starter beside smaller solenoid has a shorter nose. I need to know for sure that even so it will still work.
Regal_GS_1989 Posted January 11, 2005 Report Posted January 11, 2005 if you dont want any trouble, just use one off another 2.8.

If you're only interested in the facts, go look up part numbers, instead of shooting off at the mouth like an arrogant prick.
runt Posted January 24, 2005 Report Posted January 24, 2005 I think that the cutlass that the parent of this thread owns is pretty cool!
okidedrak Posted January 24, 2005 Author Report Posted January 24, 2005 I couldn't post this earlier but it's true the 3.1 starter works on the 2.8. Tried tested and true. Used one from a 94 but many other years are the same. GP1138, you'r a kid and a big jerk so I'll just ignore you Everyone else I'm sorry if i rubbed you the wrong way, its just that i dont have time for reading thr same information written in a million different ways. I rarely ask something it's because I've been playing with W-bodies for too long, mostly with info from Shawn from before he ever had this forum. There is little i dont know about these cars now or so it's proved so far.
GnatGoSplat Posted January 25, 2005 Report Posted January 25, 2005 Don't worry about okidokie's attitude. He's harmless.

I'm usually not a jerk, but if you're a jerk, I'll call you out on it.
Guest TurboSedan Posted January 27, 2005 Report Posted January 27, 2005 haha i remember "okidokie" from wayyyyyy back before the W-body forum started. for the life of me i can't remember his old screen name though....
okidedrak Posted January 28, 2005 Author Report Posted January 28, 2005 I dont remember ever having other nickname... ...and no I'm not really harmless cause I can smoke y'alls asses to dust ;-)

okidedrak Posted February 11, 2005 Author Report Posted February 11, 2005 In the best interest of my nerves, i took the comment/reply off Brian i think it's about time you closed this thread!
